Even More Cell Parts Do Now: Take out your Cell City project chart. If you have not already begun to do so, begin thinking about what parts of your city will represent the cell parts we have studied so far: Cell membrane Nucleus Endoplasmic Reticulum Ribosomes Come up with good analogies: A _____ is like a _____ because they both _______.
Lysosomes
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum Transport Vesicle Amino Acids Rough Mito- chondria Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum Golgi Apparatus mRNA Ribosome Outgoing Transport Vesicles Lysosome Nucleus (DNA)
Mitochondria Structure: double-membrane with lots of enzymes inside Function: Provide energy for the cell by breaking down food
